a

the work done by the gas in the process A to B exceeds the work that would be done by it if the system were taken from A to B along the isotherm

b

in the T -V diagram, the path AB becomes a part of the parabola,

c

in the P -T diagram, the path AB becomes a part of hyperbola

d

in going from A to B, the temperature T of the gas first increases to a maximum value and then decreases

answer is C.

Detailed Solution

(i) Work done = area under the curve
    W1=P+P2(2V−V)=32PV
We know that work done under isothermal process
   W2=RT×2⋅3026log⁡(2V/V)W2=0⋅693RT=0⋅693PVW1>W2(1) is correct. 
(ii) Let P0 and Vo be the intercepts on the P and V axes.
      Now the equation of straight line would be
   P=−P0V0×V+P0 (∵y=mx+C)
Further, PV=RT  or  P=(RT/V)
            RTV=−P0V0×V+P0
This represents a parabola. hence (2) is correct.

iii PV =RT   (for one mole)  also P = P0-P0V0×V   Combining the above equations , RT=P×[V0P0(P0-P)] , which represents a parabola. So option 3 is incorrect .     
(iv) Here P - V  graph deviates most from the isotherm at the mid point (3P4,3v4)
So, the temperature of the gas is maximum at the state point (3P4,3V4).. Hence (4) is correct.
